Room For Improvement

JAMS users seek enhanced UI, search, automation, security, AI integration, and documentation to improve functionality and performance.
Nintex Process Platform requires better error reporting, user interface, integration, customization, performance, and reduced complexity, with high licensing costs.
UiPath Orchestrator needs UI improvements, flexible automation, better pricing, intuitive features, effective support, and enhanced integration.
Another area for improvement would be the addition of source control for jobs internally, as this feature would solve several problems for me.

A major improvement would be the integration of AI to help us accomplish various tasks.
System Engineer at a financial services firm with 1,001-5,000 employees
If around 5,000 or more jobs run at a time, JAMS slows down, and we have to wait around five to 10 minutes or restart JAMS scheduler services.
ETL Data Engineer at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
If we receive data in JSON, there is no action available in Nintex Process Platform to parse the data and extract data from that JSON string.

Additionally, the deployment process should be easier.
Presales Solutions Consultant at Mitra Sistematika Global
I would prefer if the tool was more intuitive and it is important to maintain simplicity instead of combining multiple functionalities, potentially through different licensing models to restrict features.
Senior Technical Director at Globant
UiPath Orchestrator setup is easy, but the settings could be made easier for other people to understand.
Senior Software QA Engineer at Promantus India Pvt Ltd
I am interested in seeing more features like document understanding and AI integration.

Nintex Process Platform is expensive.
Presales Solutions Consultant at Mitra Sistematika Global
The pricing of UiPath Orchestrator is a bit high.
Sr. Manager, Digital Transformation at Raya Integration
Regarding licensing costs and setup costs, the pricing is on the higher side compared to other RPA solutions that are entering the market, which are much cheaper, and sometimes we cannot retain customers because of this.
Director - Enterprise & Govt. Business at Intellect Technolab
It would be beneficial for UiPath to further refine pricing, setup costs, and licensing by making their tool more intuitive and simplifying complex functionalities.

Featured Reviews

Cloud Engineer at a financial services firm with 501-1,000 employees
Has streamlined complex job scheduling across scripting languages while reducing manual effort
JAMS could be improved with a web client that is accessible and as fast as a normal website, eliminating the need to RDP to the servers to access the JAMS client. A functionality running on the JAMS server to continuously check the JAMS agents would ensure they are working properly. If an agent is not responding, a feature to restart the service from the job server machine would be beneficial. The upgrade process, particularly when switching from V6 to V7, could be clearer in terms of documentation, ideally with screenshots showing exactly what needs to be done on each screen.
Hafiz Muhammad Usama - PeerSpot reviewer
Manager Mobility & Digitalization at Fatima group
Have experienced challenges integrating with other systems but have benefited from improved process automation
There are multiple areas that need improvement. Nintex Process Platform needs integration with other platforms such as Salesforce and other CRM platforms. There should be actions available so we can directly integrate with these systems. Additionally, there is a gap in mathematical actions and logical actions. We need to parse data, and if we receive data in JSON, there is no action available in Nintex Process Platform to parse the data and extract data from that JSON string. Such actions and logical actions must be available in Nintex Process Platform to increase its capability. For us, Nintex Process Platform is configurable with SQL Server, but there is no configuration option available with Oracle. We also use Oracle in multiple processes, but we have found no way to directly configure Nintex Process Platform with Oracle. We have to use SQL Server in between. We have to create a link server within SQL Server as a bypass to retrieve or post data into Oracle. There were multiple improvement points available.
Manikandan Ramanujam - PeerSpot reviewer

Have managed deployments with minimal hiccups and simplified job scheduling through intuitive interface
Scheduling and running jobs is valuable because it simplifies automation. You just need to connect the bot and you can run it easily. For example, with Selenium automation, I tried Automation Anywhere, but I did not see many packages available in Automation Anywhere. Compared to UiPath, there are many packages available to make automation easier, which is why I find UiPath to be the best. Another valuable feature is the ability to give access to people in UiPath Orchestrator at the organization level. They can log in and see the information themselves, which provides transparency to the people and helps with visibility.
